V1B Human Vasopressin / Oxytocin GPCR Cell Based Agonist & Antagonist Calcium Flux LeadHunter Assay - FR

Background Information:

Vasopressin receptors belong to the superfamily of G protein-coupled seven transmembrane proteins. G-protein-coupled receptors constitute one of the major signal transduction systems in eukaryotic cells. Coding sequences for these receptors, in those regions believed to contribute to the agonist-antagonist binding site, are strongly conserved across mammalian species. Vasopressin receptors are currently classified into V1A, V1B (V3) and V2 subtypes. The V1B receptor is known to be present only in the adenohypophysis.
